Orient Express 2008

It was 1883 when the first Orient Express rail lines established through services from Paris to Istanbul via Austria, Hungary, and Romania. The direct connection east revolutionized transport and brought adventure and delight to tens of thousands of passengers. Crossing the many frontiers of a still-divided Europe, the train journey of nearly 4,000 kilometers was a genuine adventure; the subject of legend and fantasy. The present-day cycle trip will offer you delights and challenges of a different order – physical, mental and spiritual. See the Europe of the 21st century from the seat of your bike!
